Don’t [Live from the Theatre at Ace Hotel / 2019]

[Verse 1]
Don't tell me you'll hold me that everything's gonna be fine
Don't tell me how your love for me will grow deeper in time
Here as I stand in the light of day
I move my lips but no one hears one word I say
Don't carry my suitcase and tell me how lovely I look
Don't dream of me ironing the sheets or learning to cook
Oh, yesterday was a long time ago
If only I knew then what it is I now know
Is anybody out there?
Doesn't anybody understand?
Love is not a contract made between a woman and a man

[Verse 2]
Don't tell me that dreams are devised for the young and for fools
Don't kiss me and tell me that we can rewrite all the rules
Oh, yesterday was a long time ago
If only I knew then what it is I now know
Is anybody out there?
Doesn't anybody understand?
Love is not a handshake made between a woman and a man

[Outro]
Don't whisper "I love you" and say that it's all for the best
Don't tell me "I'm tired, I'll feel better once I get some rest"
Thank you, it's Lucius
